Good refernece. It says theoretical max is 1GB. It doesn't guarantee it. Also, you would nee dthe irght type of 1GB DIMM. So while it looks probable, the question is what timeframe?

So, while being wrong about the theoretical maximum for ram in the 12" Powerbook, I still stick by my statement of you should buy a system according to its current capabilities. Theory and reality sometimes don't turn out to be the same thing.

I agree, part of the problem as I see it will be getting a 1" or 1.25" 1GB DDR Dimm. I don't think that when they are initially released that they will be available at these smaller heights.
